Hello, I'm Darkness Shines. I noticed that you made an edit to a biography of a living person, White privilege, but that you didn’t support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Darkness Shines (talk) 21:18, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Richard Girnt Butler. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Darkness Shines (talk) 08:39, 9 December 2012 (UTC)

I vandalize once unknowingly and get blocked?! If this is how you treat new editors then it's a wonder anybody stays on this site. Afrikan Liberationist (talk) 17:39, 9 December 2012 (UTC)


 * You can of course be unblocked as soon as you acknowledge that you have understood why your previous editing was unacceptable and how you intend to edit constructively in the future. Your edits, together with your user name, rather clearly indicate that you have been here to push an ideological agenda, so you will really have to change your whole approach to editing here if you want to become a constructive member of this project.

Unblock/name-change request
I understand my previous actions did not meet the standards of this website. I will not engage in further point-of-view-pushing behaviors. Afrikan Liberationist (talk) 19:18, 9 December 2012 (UTC)


 * I'm new. I didn't understand at first that what I did was considered vandalism. I understand that now. I found something that might apply here, WP:DNB. Not sure how to link to it, but it cautions against being hostile to new users, and I really am feeling some hostility right now. I recognize that I made a mistake. What does it take to rectify that mistake? Afrikan Liberationist (talk) 20:22, 9 December 2012 (UTC)

Note to admins
This guy did not commit a BLP vio with the "racist idiot" edit, that guy is dead, which is in fact a good thing, he was a wanker. You need to read BITE, cut this newb some slack let him read the rules and give another chance. Darkness Shines (talk) 23:19, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
